Last week I learned a very interesting lesson. I am just in the end phase of a custom software delivery project. Using OLIVANOVA‘s model driven software development approach, I created a three-tier application with an ASP.NET client, a COM+ based server tier and MS SQL Server as the persistence layer. […]

As stated in a recent post, I’ve been able to create a Silverlight 4 client that accesses an OLIVANOVA generated business logic using WCF RIA Services. Well, the actual code to enable this scenario is in fact not that complicated (once you learned how to write Silverlight enabled WCF RIA […]
Silverlight 4 and WCF RIA Services generated from OlivaNova model
OLIVANOVA can generate code for application information logs automatically: for .NET environments OLIVANOVA uses the System.Diagnostics.Trace class included in the .NET Framework for J2EE platforms OLIVANOVA uses log4j
Did you know that OlivaNova is able to create application ...
I just recently did some evaluation on OLIVANOVA along with TimesTen In-Memory Database as the persistence layer. OLIVANOVA is a model driven software development environment that generates code for business software. Certified database management systems include all major relational database management systems such as Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, DB2 and […]
OlivaNova is compatible with TimesTen In-Memory database

To me, Silverlight has always been a fascinating technology. I started playing around with Silverlight back in September 2007. Since then, I always wanted to create a Silverlight user interface for OlivaNova. With the first versions, the lack of standard data controls made it really difficult to implement a data-driven […]
Silverlight 4, WCF RIA Services and OlivaNova Business Logic

In the first part of this post, I wanted to show how easy it is to access information from the currently logged in user and store this information in an action the user executes (who created/changed a record). Now, what happens, if we have several groups of users (roles)? Well, […]
Audit information specified in a model … part 2

Almost any business application I delivered contains some kind of audit information. Depending on the size and the type of application this information is more or less sufficiently distinctive. Some typical information is almost always “who did what when?”. Sometimes a “why” would also be a justifiable question, but this […]
Audit information specified in a model … part 1
If you want to learn more about model driven software development and how to create your first “Hello World!” example, then please have a look at these tutorials. They explain how to start using the OlivaNova Modeler. All tutorials are available here: http://www.care-t.com/Evaluation/index.asp?menu=2
